Liam's 3rd Birthday

Liam is 3 Years Old!

Happy 3rd Birthday to our sweet Liam.  We love your kind nature, sweet disposition, crazy independence and love for action.  You love to ride your bike, your scooter, play all sports especially soccer, basketball and baseball.  Your athletic ability and coordination amaze us.  We love you to the moon and back times infinity. 

Birthday Celebration ~

We celebrated his birthday morning with special hot wheels balloons when he woke up, a special birthday dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Mia Francesca, with Oma, Phil, Katherine and Paxton (they were in town from Michigan) and opened gifts at home.  We had a special chocolate cake with vanilla butter cream frosting from Sweet Mandy B's.  We get both boys gifts on their birthdays (Grayson gets presents on Liam's birthday and Liam gets presents on Grayson's birthday) because their birthdays are so close together (3 weeks).  They got a fun laser tag game from Phil, Kat and Paxton.  They also got a train set, rocket shooter, car carrier, hot wheels and a few other gifts.  They were so excited to play with all of their new toys.

Things he loves ~

He loves to ride his bike and his scooter, play sports, play with big brother Grayson, play with cars, trains, magnatiles, marble maze, doctor kit, construction kit and play pretend.  I always love hearing him talk in different voices when he's playing with his toys.  

We are so proud of our Liam (Lili, Lili cakes, Boo Boo, Googie).  He is such a big boy now and loves to do everything by himself.  Beware if you try to help because he will have a meltdown.  He has started dressing himself and loves to do everything big brother Grayson does including repeating everything he says.  (such a cute echo)  They have started playing together a lot more and it's so sweet to see, although it ends up in a lot of fights.  Liam loves to antagonize Grayson, but we think he is paying Grayson back for all the beat ups when he was younger.  They truly are the best of friends and love each other so much.  I know this relationship will only grow with time.  We love to watch this bond grow each day.        

3 Year Doctor Check up

We took Liam to see Dr. Cherian (Allison's older sister) for his 3 year check up.  She was happy with his weight gain and height gain.  We discussed some options for Liam's rigidity (OT evaluation, etc) and hope to find ways for him to go more with the flow.  He weighed 28 pounds (13th percentile),  was 36.75 inches long (33rd percentile) and has a BMI of 14.58 (8th percentile). 

Happy Birthday to our sweet Liam!  We love you so much!

Love,

Mommy & Daddy
